Download or read book Dodge City and the Birth of the Wild West written by Robert R. Dykstra and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2017-07-15 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raised on Gunsmoke, Bat Masterson, and The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp, we know what it means to “get outta Dodge”—to make a hasty escape from a dangerous place, like the Dodge City of Wild West lore. But why, of all the notorious, violent cities of old, did Dodge win this distinction? And what does this tenacious cultural metaphor have to do with the real Dodge City? In a book as much about the making of cultural myths as it is about Dodge City itself, authors Robert Dykstra and Jo Ann Manfra take us back into the history of Dodge to trace the growth of the city and its legend side-by-side. An exploration of murder statistics, court cases, and contemporary accounts reveals the historical Dodge to be neither as violent nor as lawless as legend has it—but every bit as intriguing. In a style that captures the charm and chicanery of storytelling in the Old West, Dodge City and the Birth of the Wild West finds a culprit in a local attorney, Harry Gryden, who fed sensational accounts to the national media during the so-called "Dodge City War" of 1883. Once launched, the legend leads the authors through the cultural landscape of twentieth-century America, as Dodge City became a useful metaphor in more and more television series and movies. Meanwhile, back in the actual Dodge, struggling on a lost frontier, a mirror image of the mythical city began to emerge, as residents increasingly embraced tourism as an economic necessity. Dodge City and the Birth of the Wild West maps a metaphor for belligerent individualism and social freedom through the cultural imagination, from a historical starting point to its mythical reflection. In this, the book restores both the reality of Dodge and its legend to their rightful place in the continuum of American culture.
Download or read book A Wild West of the Mind written by George Sher and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A trip through someone else's mind would not be a pleasant journey. Even if you did not stumble across anything truly abhorrent, you could hardly avoid a good deal of ugly thoughts - hostile attitudes towards friends, negative stereotypes of groups, plenty of contempt, and a whole host ofshocking fantasies. But what is our moral relationship to our ideas? Are we justified in morally condemning ugly thoughts? In A Wild West of the Mind, George Sher argues for the provocative thesis that the realm of the purely mental is a "morality-free zone." Within that realm, no thoughts orattitudes are forbidden or required. Morality properly constrains our actions in a world full of others, but in a sense, our thoughts are off-limits-each person's individual subjectivity is boundless.Sher begins by arguing against a reigning assumption in much of moral philosophy that morality has a bearing not only on how we act, but also on what we think and feel. On Sher's view, we cannot subject private thoughts to moral evaluation or constraint precisely because they are confined to themental sphere. Actions are morally condemnable when they do harm to others; by definition, though it may motivate a harmful action, a thought in itself cannot do harm. This does not mean, of course, that our mental states are not subject to any evaluations whatsoever. Our beliefs can be irrationaland our desires can be vicious, reflecting badly on our character, but we cannot say they are "wrong" or impermissible as such. From here, Sher presents a positive defense of "free thought," one that posits that constraining our mental lives with moral proscriptions poses a severe threat to ourmental freedom, one that can significantly impoverish our lives. Broad in scope and tightly argued, this book will have much to offer philosophers working in ethics, free will, and epistemology.
